Summary | Twitter has been accused of blocking antiabortion ads and asking to remove "sensitive content" from its social network platform. The antiabortion group (Live Action) claims that Twitter does not respect its policy to host "unfiltered debate". Other major tech companies such as Facebook or Google have been accused of crossing the line by censoring content and blocking posts from their platforms. According to Live Action, everyone should be able to share their ideas and opinion.

Summary | Twitter is the perfect medium for Donald Trump. Short, polarizing, and not particularly throuroughly argued but memorable statements emulate his brand. Often he tweets very aggressively and without much content. Hillary Clinton usually tweets links to further multimedial material or engages with powerful supporters on Twitter but Donald Trump's tweets are much more often retweeted.
